Problems solved by technology

To this end, Arifin et al. developed the AlCl 3 -DMS method (Indon.J.Chem.2015,15,77), but the yield for eugenol demethylation is still very low (around 30%)
In addition, AlCl 3 - Tertiary amines can be used to remove methyl groups, but are not suitable for removing ethyl groups and other sterically hindered alkyl groups (J.Org.Chem.1962, 27, 2037), which will significantly affect the yield

Embodiment 1

[0030] Embodiment 1 (eugenol demethylation)

[0031]

[0032] Add iodine (12.727g), aluminum powder (1.902g) and acetonitrile (100ml) respectively to a 250ml eggplant-shaped bottle, heat to reflux, and stir for 2 hours until the purple color of iodine disappears. Further pyridine (12.183 g) and eugenol (4.919 g) were added, and the reaction was continued for 18 hours. Stirring was stopped, and after cooling to room temperature, 2mol / L dilute hydrochloric acid (50ml) was added to the reaction solution to acidify it, and extracted with ethyl acetate (50ml×4). The organic phases were combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Filtration, the filtrate was evaporated to dryness with a rotary evaporator, and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (mobile phase was ethyl acetate:petroleum ether=1:4, volume ratio) to obtain 4-allyl catechol (white solid , 4.910 g, yield 99%).

[0035] Embodiment 2 (eugenol demethylation)

[0036]

[0037] Add iodine (2.098g), aluminum powder (0.362g) and acetonitrile (50ml) respectively to a 100ml eggplant-shaped bottle, heat to reflux, and stir for 2 hours until the purple color of iodine disappears. Additional DMAP (2.750 g) and eugenol (0.825 g) were added and the reaction was continued for 18 hours. Stop stirring, cool to room temperature, add 2mol / L dilute hydrochloric acid (10ml) to the reaction solution to acidify, and extract with ethyl acetate (50ml×3). The organic phases were combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Filtration, the filtrate was evaporated to dryness with a rotary evaporator, and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (mobile phase was ethyl acetate:petroleum ether=1:4, volume ratio) to obtain 4-allyl catechol (white solid , 0.362g, yield 48%), and recovered starting material (0.202g).

[0040]Add iodine (2.107g), aluminum powder (0.409g) and acetonitrile (50ml) respectively to a 100ml eggplant-shaped bottle, heat to reflux, and stir for 2 hours until the purple color of iodine disappears. Further 2,6-lutidine (2.750 g) and eugenol (0.823 g) were added, and the reaction was continued for 18 hours. Stop stirring, cool to room temperature, add 2mol / L dilute hydrochloric acid (10ml) to the reaction solution to acidify, and extract with ethyl acetate (50ml×3). The organic phases were combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Filtration, the filtrate was evaporated to dryness with a rotary evaporator, and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (mobile phase was ethyl acetate:petroleum ether=1:4, volume ratio) to obtain 4-allyl catechol (white solid , 0.692g, yield 92%).

Abstract

The invention discloses an ether bond rupturing method for ortho-hydroxyl phenyl alkyl ether. The method comprises the following steps that in a solvent, an ether bond rupturing reaction occurs to ortho-hydroxyl aryl alky ether at the temperature ranging from minus 20 DEG C to the catalyst reflux temperature under the existence of alkali and a catalyst aluminum triiodide, and catechol and derivatives thereof are generated. The method is simple, reaction conditions are simple, and operation is easy; besides, the yield is high, and the applicable ortho-hydroxyl phenyl alkyl ether range is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of intermediate synthesis of medicines and chemical raw materials, in particular to a method for breaking ether bonds of o-hydroxyphenyl alkyl ethers. Background technique [0002] Substituted catechols are common intermediates in pharmaceuticals and chemical raw materials, such as hydroxytyrosol (J. Med. Chem. 2015, 58, 9089), protocatechuic acid (CN 104072362), etc. Dealkylation through the ether bond cleavage reaction of o-hydroxyphenyl alkyl ether is a commonly used synthetic method for preparing catechol. The ether bond cleavage of o-hydroxyphenylalkyl ethers can be catalyzed by Bronsted acid or Lewis acid. Commonly used Bronsted acids include HCl, HBr, HI, pyridine hydrochloride (such as Org.Proc.Res.Dev.2004,8,670) and so on. Commonly used Lewis acid BBr 3 (CN 104072362) and LiCl-DMF (Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2011, 21, 2659), etc. These methods are cumbersome to operate, and when used on substrate...
